BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention

[0002] This invention relates to benzopiperidine derivatives, salts thereof or hydrates thereof, which are useful in the prevention and treatment of immunologic diseases, etc., drugs containing the same, processes for producing the same and intermediates thereof.

[0003] 2. Prior Art

[0004] In recent years, the participation adhesion molecules such as ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and E-selectin participate in the processes of extravascular infiltration of leukocytes into inflammatory tissues, metastasis of cancer cells, recognition of antigens by immunocytes and proliferation of immunocytes has come to be regarded as highly important. For example, rheumatoid arthritis is actually associated with the promoted expression of adhesion molecules in joints, the infiltration of lymphocytes into joint synovial membranes and neutrophil infiltration into the synovial fluid. It has been also reported that adhesion molecules participate in asthma, nephritis, ischemic reflow disorders, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, the rejection reaction accompanying organ transplantation, and cancer metastasis. Therefore, it is expected that the inflammatory immunologic diseases such as asthma, nephritis, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, inflammation, ischemic reflow disorders and the rejection reaction accompanying organ transplantation, autoimmune diseases such as rheumatism and collagen disease, and cancer metastasis can be inhibited by regulating the adhesion of leukocytes, neutrophilis, cancer cells, etc. to intravascular endothelial cells and controlling the antigen recognition process.

[0005] When treating various inflammatory diseases and immune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, it has been a common practice to suppress the inflammation by the use of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAID) such as indomethacin and ibuprofen, and steroids, i.e., “symptomatic treatments”.

[0006] Recently, attempts have been also made to use immunomodulators such as D-penicillamine which is a remedy for rheumatism and Wilson's disease, and levamisole which is an immunopotentiator activating T cells, in order to ameliorate immunopathy at the early stage, i.e., “causal treatments”.

[0007] However, NSAIDs such as indomethacin have serious side effects such as gastric ulceration. Moreover, it is considered that these drugs are not efficacious against tissue disorders or the pathological progression associated with chronic inflammation. With respect to steroids too, the problem of serious side effects frequently arises.

[0008] On the other hand, hitherto no immunomodulator has been known satisfactory both in its therapeutic effects and side effects. Accordingly, the development of excellent drugs suitable for both symptomatic and causal treatments has been urgently required.

[0009] As compounds having similar structures to those of the compounds of the present invention, it was disclosed in JP-A-60-115524 that 1,4-diazaphenothiazine derivatives have 5-lipoxygenase inhibitory effects. However, this patent provides few examples, despite its broad claims. That is to say, the claims thereof are not clearly supported by the description in the specification.

[0010] Furthermore, the above-mentioned patent neither states nor suggests that these compounds are efficacious in the prevention and treatment of various diseases owing to the cell adhesion inhibitory effects thereof, as clarified in the present invention.

[0011] On the other hand, compounds analogous to the compounds of the present invention are reported as nerve relaxants in J. Med. Chem., 16 (4), 564 (1983) and as antibacterial agents, insecticides and herbicides in U.S. Pat. No. 3663543, U.S. Pat. No. 3746707, U.S. Pat. No. 3808208, U.S. Pat. No. 3.821213 and U.S. Pat. No. 3845044.

EXPERIMENTAL EXAMPLE 2 Effect on Carrageenin-Induced Rat Pleurisy

[1297] 200 &mgr;l of a carrageenin solution (10 mg/ml in physiological saline) was intrathoracically injected into rats. Five hours thereafter, blood of the animals was collected from the abdominal aorta under etherization so as to induce death from blood loss. The exudate was taken up from the thoracic cavity and weighed with a single-pan balance. Further, the exudate was diluted with Türk's solution and the cells were counted by using a counting chamber. Next the total cell count was calculated by multiplying the cell count by the exudate volume. Thus the inhibitory ratio was calculated by taking the total cell count with the administration of carrageenin as 100% and that with the administration of physiological saline as 0%. Each test compound was suspended in a 0.5% solution of methylcellulose and orally administered at a dose of 5 ml/kg 30 minutes before the injection of carrageenin.

Then the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and added to 350 ml of water and 350 ml of ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and distilled under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluted with methylene chloride/methanol) to thereby give 0.62 g of ethyl(anti)-[[3-(10H-pyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]benzothiazin-8-ylmethyl)-3-azabicyclo[3.1.1]heptane-7-spiro-cyclobutan]-6-yl]acetate and0.49 g of ethyl(syn)-[(3-(10H-pyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]benzothiazin-8-ylmethyl)-3-azabicyclo[3.1.1]heptane-7-spiro-cyclobutan]-6-yl]acetate each as a yellow powder. 376

[1806] 3.67 ml of methoxytrimethylsilane was dissolved in 30 ml of tetrahydrofuran and cooled to −60° C. Next, 18.1 ml of a 1.3 M solution of sec-butyllithium in cyclohexane was dropped thereinto while maintaining the bulk temperature at −50° C. or below. After the completion of the dropping, the resulting mixture was stirred at −25 to −30° C. for 30 minutes. Then it was cooled to −35° C. and a solution of 3.0 g of 3-methyl-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-one in tetrahydrofuran (10 ml) was dropped thereinto while maintaining the bulk temperature at −25° C. or below. Subsequently, the reaction mixture was slowly heated to room temperature. After stirring for 6 hours, a saturated aqueous solution of ammonium chloride was added to the reaction mixture followed by the extraction with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was washed with water and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. Thus 4.96 g of a pale yellow oily substance was obtained.

[1807] 3.91 g of this oily substance was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (50 ml). After adding 3.01 g of 35% potassium hydride, the resulting mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 30 minutes. Then a saturated aqueous solution of ammonium chloride was added to the reaction mixture followed by the extraction with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was washed with water and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. Then the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluted with n-hexane/ethyl acetate) to thereby give 1.14 g of the title compound as a colorless oily substance.

[2355] Into 20 ml of a solution of 0.883 g of 4-[1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)piperidin -4-yl]butanoic acid in tetrahydrofuran were successively added at 0° C. in a nitrogen atmosphere 0.67 g of triethylamine and 5 ml of a solution of 1.19 g of diethyl chlorophosphate in tetrahydrofuran and the resulting mixture was then stirred at 0° C. for 2 hours. To this reaction mixture were added 0.527 g of 5-aminotetrazole and 10 ml of a solution of 0.54 g of triethylamine in tetrahydrofuran and the resulting mixture was stirred for additional 15 hours. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, ethyl acetate and water were added to the residue and the pH value thereof was adjusted to 4 with formic acid. Then the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layers were combined, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and filtered. After concentrating under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluted with dichloromethane/methanol) to thereby give 0.875 g of the title compound as white crystals. 707

[2358] 1.41 g of oxalyl chloride was dissolved in 70 ml of dichloromethane and cooled to −78° C. in a nitrogen atmosphere. Into the solution was dropped a solution of 1.38 g of dimethyl sulfoxide in dichloromethane (3 ml) over 5 minutes. Further, a solution of 1.22 g of 2-(3-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-3-azabicyclo[4.1.0]hept-6-yl]ethanol in dichloromethane (10 ml) was dropped thereinto over 5 minutes. After stirring for 15 minutes, 2.24 g of triethylamine was dropped thereinto over 5 minutes and stirring was continued for additional 30 minutes. Then the reaction mixture was diluted with dichloromethane, washed with 1 N hydrochloric acid and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate followed by filtration. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, the obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluted with n-hexane/ethyl acetate) to thereby give 450 mg of a product. Next, this compound was dissolved in 6 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide and 5 ml of an aqueous solution of 257 mg of sodium dihydrogenphosphate was added thereto. After adding 5 ml of an aqueous solution of 496 mg of sodium chlorite over 5 minutes, the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 10 minutes. Then the reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed successively with water and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and filtered. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, the obtained residue was dissolved in 40 ml of toluene. After adding 6 ml of a 2 M solution of trimethylsilyldiazomethane in hexane and 10 ml of methanol, the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 50 minutes. After concentrating the reaction mixture under reduced pressure, the obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluted with n-hexane/ethyl acetate) to thereby-give 180 mg of the title compound as an oily substance. 708

EXAMPLE 504 N-[1-(10H-Pyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]benzothiazin-8-ylmethyl)-piperidin-4-yl]-5-methyl -1,2-oxazole-4-carboxamide

[2426] 50 ml of a solution of 5.7 g of 4-amino-1-benzyl-piperidine in toluene was stirred and 2.5 ml of diketene was carefully dropped thereinto. After the completion of the,reaction, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure and the residue was allowed to stand at a low temperature. To the crystals thus precipitated was added diethyl ether/isopropyl ether followed by grinding and filtration. Thus 4.95 g of N-(1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl)-3-oxobutanamide was obtained as colorless crystals. Next, this compound was dissolved in a solvent mixture of tetrahydrofuran (25 ml) with methanol (25 ml). After adding 1.0 g of 10% palladium-carbon, the resulting mixture was stirred under atmospheric pressure in a hydrogen atmosphere for 2 hours. After filtering off inorganic matters through celite, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The oily residue thus obtained was dissolved in 50 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide and 4.1 g of 8-chloromethyl-10-(methoxymethyl)-10H-pyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]benzothiazine and 2.1 g of potassium carbonate were added thereto. The resulting mixture was heated to 100° C. for 1 hour. Then the reaction mixture was brought back to room temperature and distributed into water and ethyl acetate. The organic layer was extracted, washed with water and dried over sodium sulfate. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluted with dichloromethane/methanol) to thereby give 3.7 g of N-[1-(10H-pyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]benzothiazin-8-ylmethyl)-piperidin-4-yl]-3-oxobutanamide as yellow crystals. Further, 3.7 g of this N-[1-(10H-pyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]benzothiazin-8-ylmethyl)-piperidin-4-yl]-3-oxobutanamide was dissolved in toluene (10 ml). After adding 1.3 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal, the mixture was heated to 90° C. for 30 minutes. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, 10 ml of methanol and 800 mg of hydroxylamine hydrochloride were added to the yellow oily residue thus obtained. Then the resulting mixture was heated under reflux for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was brought back to room temperature and distributed into water and ethyl acetate. The organic layer was extracted, washed with water and dried over sodium sulfate. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, 30 ml of glacial acetic acid was added to the yellow oily residue thus obtained. Then the resulting mixture was heated to 80° C. for 4 hours. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluted with dichloromethane/methanol) and recrystallized from diethyl ether/ethyl acetate to thereby give 1.6 g of the title compound as yellow crystals. 849

EXAMPLE 575 Methyl 4-[1-(10H-pyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]benzothiazin-8-ylmethyl)-piperidin-4-yl]phenylacetate

[2496] To a solution of 1.0 g of methyl 4-[1-(benzyloxy-carbonyl)piperidin-4-yl]phenylacetate in ethanol (100 ml) was added 1.0 g of 10% palladium-carbon (moisture content: 50%) and a hydrogenation reaction was effected under atmospheric pressure for 12 hours. Then the palladium-carbon was filtered off and the solvent was concentrated under reduced pressure to thereby give 0.5 g of crude methyl 4-(piperidin-4-yl)phenylacetate. To a solution of 0.5 g of this crude product and 0.5 g of 8-(chloroethyl)-10H-pyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]benzothiazine in N,N-dimethylformamide (30 ml) was added 0.87 g of anhydrous potassium carbonate and the resulting mixture was stirred under heating to 60° C. for 40 minutes. After adding water, the reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluted with n-hexane/ethyl acetate) to thereby give 0.6 g of the title compound as a yellow oily substance. 920

EXAMPLE 583 Ethyl (E)-3-[1-(10H-pyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]benzothiazin-8-ylmethyl)piperidin-4-yl]propanoate

[2500] To a solution of 1.6 g of ethyl 3-(1-benzylpiperidin-4-yl)propenoate in 1,2-dichloroethane (30 ml) was added at 0° C. 0.74 ml of 1-chloroethyl chloroformate and the resulting mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 15 minutes and then heated under reflux for 1 hour. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, 50 ml of methanol was added to the residue and the resulting mixture was heated under reflux for 1 hour. Then the mixture was made weakly alkaline with a dilute aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. To a solution of 1.0 g of ethyl 3-(piperidin-4-yl)propenoate thus obtained and 0.64 g of 8-(chloroethyl)-10H-pyrazino[2,3-b][1,4]benzothiazine in N,N-dimethylformamide (30 ml) was added 1.1 g of anhydrous potassium carbonate and the resulting mixture was stirred by heating to 60° C. for 1 hour. After adding water, the reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluted with methanol/dichloromethane) to thereby give 0.6 g of the title compound as yellow crystals. 928

After pouring into water, the solution was neutralized with sodium dihyrogenphosphate. The precipitate thus formed was taken up by filtration, washed successively with a small portion of water and dichloromethane and dissolved in dichloromethane. The obtained solution was dried over magnesium sulfate. After filtering off the insoluble matters, the solution was concentrated to 5 ml under reduced pressure. Then diethyl ether (10 ml) was added thereto and the crystals thus precipitated were taken up by filtration to thereby give 0.035 g of the title compound as pale yellow crystals. 1072

The reaction mixture was stirred and 5.8 ml of a 1.5 M solution of isobutylalminum hydride in toluene was dropped thereinto. After stirring for 2 hours, the reaction mixture was poured into ice-ethyl acetate and stirred for 30 minutes. The insoluble matters were removed by filtering the reaction mixture thorough celite. Then the organic layer was extracted, washed with water and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluted with ethyl acetate/n-hexane) to thereby give 1.4 g of 3-[10-(methoxymethyl)-10H-pyrazino-[2,3-b][1,4]benzothiazin-8-ylmethyl]-2-propen-1-ol as a pale yellow oily substance. The obtained compound was dissolved in 10 ml of hexachloroacetone and 1.34 g of triphenylphosphine was added in several portions thereto under ice-cooling. After stirring at room temperature for 30 minutes, the reaction mixture was distributed into an aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate and diethyl ether and extracted with ether. After drying over anhydrous sodium sulfate and distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluted with ethyl acetate/n-hexane) to thereby give 230 mg of the title compound as yellow crystals. 1552
